Month-to-Month Lease Agreement

The Landlord must sign the Month-to-Month Lease Agreement

The Tenant(s) must sign the Month-to-Month Lease Agreement. If there is more than one adult Tenant, each Tenant should sign the Month-to-Month Lease Agreement.

Generally, the Landlord and the Tenant(s) will each retain an original signed Month-to-Month Lease Agreement. Therefore, if there is one Landlord and two Tenants, three original leases must be executed (i.e., signed and dated).

Certain provinces requires the Landlord and Tenant(s) to conduct an inspection of the premises to be rented, either before physical occupancy of the property by the Tenant(s) or before the Month-to-Month Lease Agreement is signed by either party. Even if a province does not specifically require a joint inspection, it is nonetheless a good idea to conduct one for the protection of both parties.

These forms contain the basic terms and language that should be included in month-to-month lease agreements. The laws in some provinces require a lessor (i.e., the person who

is renting out his property) to make additional written disclosures, including disclosures about the condition of the dwelling, the building, the neighbourhood, the environment and any other known problems. You should consult with a real estate agent or solicitor in your area to determine what additional disclosures, if any, are required in your province or locality. Even if these disclosures are not required by law, a Tenant may still request that they be made, and may negotiate to make them part of his agreement.

Laws vary from time to time and from province to province. These forms are not a substitute for legal advice. These forms should be considered only a starting point, and should not be used or signed before first consulting with a solicitor to ensure that they address your particular situation. A solicitor should be consulted before negotiating any document with another party.

General Information

Month-to-Month Lease Agreement

Whenever a landlord (who may be the owner of an apartment building, condominium or residence) rents a unit to a tenant, an agreement should be written and signed by both landlord and tenant and should set forth the terms to which the parties have agreed. Such a document is generally called a lease or rental agreement. Many provinces consider oral agreements regarding the rental of real property to be invalid; these provinces require a written agreement.

Generally the lease or rental agreement is for a fixed term (e.g., six months or one year), which means that the landlord and the tenant are contractually bound for the duration of the lease term: the tenant must continue to pay rent to the landlord and the landlord must continue to allow the tenant’s occupancy of the premises. In a month-to-month lease, both parties are permitted greater flexibility than in the longer-term leases. Either party may terminate the agreement by providing written notice, which notice must usually be at least 30 days. This flexibility may benefit both parties. For example, if the premises are in an appreciating rental market, the landlord may elect a month-to-month tenancy so that she has the flexibility to adjust the rent. A tenant may choose a month-to-month tenancy if he has uncertain future plans.

Some provinces require that the landlord and tenant conduct an inspection of the premises to be rented either before physical occupancy of the property by the tenant or before the lease is signed by either party. A joint inspection form, in which landlord and tenant agree as to the presence and condition of items in the apartment and the apartment itself, is useful to document the inspection and can help avoid problems or misunderstandings at the end of the lease term. Even if a province does not require a joint inspection, it is a good idea to complete one for the protection of both parties: a joint inspection can help the landlord justify any security deposit deductions, if warranted, or can demonstrate that certain property damage predated the tenant’s occupancy.

If more than one tenant signs the lease, each tenant may be held responsible for all of the obligations under the lease if the other tenants don’t perform their obligations. In other words, a tenant may be held responsible for the entire rental amount if his co-tenants do not pay their share.

No waiver or modification by either party of any provision of this Lease shall be deemed to have been made unless expressed in writing and signed by the party to be charged. The receipt and retention by the Landlord of Rent with knowledge of the breach of any provision of this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach.

Month-to-Month Lease Agreement

Whenever a landlord (who may be the owner of an apartment building, condominium or residence) rents a unit to a tenant, an agreement should be written and signed by both landlord and tenant and should set forth the terms to which the parties have agreed. Such a document is generally called a lease or rental agreement. Many provinces consider oral agreements regarding the rental of real property to be invalid; these provinces require a written agreement.

Generally the lease or rental agreement is for a fixed term (e.g., six months or one year), which means that the landlord and the tenant are contractually bound for the duration of the lease term: the tenant must continue to pay rent to the landlord and the landlord must continue to allow the tenant’s occupancy of the premises. In a month-to-month lease, both parties are permitted greater flexibility than in the longer-term leases.

A tenant may choose a month-to-month tenancy if he has uncertain future plans.

Some provinces require that the landlord and tenant conduct an inspection of the premises to be rented either before physical occupancy of the property by the tenant or before the lease is signed by either party. A joint inspection form, in which landlord and tenant agree as to the presence and condition of items in the apartment and the apartment itself, is useful to document the inspection and can help avoid problems or misunderstandings at the end of the lease term. Even if a province does not require a joint inspection, it is a good idea to complete one for the protection of both parties: a joint inspection can help the landlord justify any security deposit deductions, if warranted, or can demonstrate that certain property damage predated the tenant’s occupancy.

If more than one tenant signs the lease, each tenant may be held responsible for all of the obligations under the lease if the other tenants don’t perform their obligations. In other words, a tenant may be held responsible for the entire rental amount if his co-tenants do not pay their share.

This lease was pretty close to what we needed. We added an extra section because our house will remain on the market while being rented but the bulk of what we needed was included. The $20 spent here saved us a lot of time figuring it out ourselves... or hiring a lawyer. I would use this site again.
